Anthony Kiedis Talks About Everly Bear

Red Hot Chili Peppers frontman, Anthony Kiedis, confirmed rumors that he has welcomed a son named Everly Bear. The name was inspired by his own music roots.

"We had a long list of names, but I suppose it came to me by way of the Everly Brothers, which is one of my favorite bands," says Kiedis. "And sometimes last names make good first names."

Kiedis's girlfriend Heather Christie came up with the very unique middle name.

"The mama came up with Bear," Kiedis says. "That made sense to me because he's from me and I feel like I'm part of the bear clan, and I think it's nice to have a little bit of earth in your name."

The couple have been busy adapting to life with a baby since Everly's arrival on October 2nd.

"Being a father is different, it's much different," Kiedis says. "I sleep when I can, but he's letting me off pretty easy so far. He's a very calm and peaceful kid."
